Poetry is a precious heritage of China culture, with far-reaching cultural connotation and artistic value. Poetry appreciation needs certain methods. Here are some ways to appreciate poetry:
1, familiar with the poetic background.
Starting from the author's life, background of the times and writing background, we can better understand poetry and reduce the obstacles in understanding.
2. A preliminary understanding of the meaning of poetry.
First of all, we should understand the meaning of each word, understand the usage and meaning of each word, so as to understand the meaning of poetry initially. Sometimes there are some rare words in poetry, so you need to look them up in the dictionary.
3. Deliberately fuzzy consciousness.
Poetry is an ethereal and abstract art form. Sometimes you don't need to fully understand it, you just need to "know".
4. Find the central idea and emotion of poetry.
To read a poem, we need to find the central idea and emotion of the poem, which can start from the title or the first sentence of the poem.
5. Pay attention to the rhythm and rhyme of poetry.
Poetry has a unique charm, so we need to pay attention to the ups and downs of rhythm and appreciate their musicality and sense of rhythm. You can compare different poems and try to find out the differences between them.
6. Contrast poetry.
We can compare the works of the same poet or works of different times and regions, and find different characteristics and cultural connotations of poetry through comparison.
7. Association and imagination.
When reading and appreciating poetry, we can associate ourselves with our own cultural accomplishment and imagination, and further understand the meaning and connotation of poetry.
Examples of poetry appreciation:
The sun sets slowly near the western hills, and the Yellow River flows into the East China Sea. make more/greater progress; improve one's already distinguished work; continue to do better; top one's own best achievements
Appreciation: the poet's extraordinary ambition to climb high and look far reflects the positive and enterprising spirit of the people in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Among them, the first two sentences are what you see. "The Mountain Covers the Day" is about the view, the mountain and the scenery seen when climbing the building, and "The River with the Ocean Discharging Gold" is about the close-up view, the water is spectacular and magnificent.
Here, the poet captured the rivers and mountains of Wan Li in a very simple and plain language with just ten words; Later, when people read these ten words a thousand years later, they felt like they were underground. If they see the scenery, they will feel that their minds are open.
Looking into the distance, a touch of sunset sank to the endless rolling mountains in front of the building and disappeared into Ran Ran at the end of the field of vision. This is the sky view, the distant view and the western view. The second sentence is about the Yellow River flowing through the front and bottom of the building, roaring south, then turning east in the distance and flowing to the sea. This is from the ground to the horizon, from near to far, from west to east.
When these two poems are combined, the scenery of up and down, far and near, and things are all contained under the pen, which makes the picture look particularly broad and distant.
